Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-hackers@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk what exactly is signal 4? recently I have been getting this quite often... if it is a normal command that hits a sig 4 it usally hangs the machine after a few seconds... could it be a memory timing problem? or possible something else? I'm running a Conner CFP1060S with three cdrom drives on an Adaptec 2840... also is two 4port AST compatible async cards... the ethernet card is a ne2000 clone... I'm running 2.2-960323-SNAP on it.... I'm thinking of upgrading the machine to 2.1-STABLE but I currently don't have enough disk space to make it... thanks for the help... TTYL..
